Glad you like it, GA! That support is really helping. I wrote this up in a day, so I'm surprised it's any good.
Damn, I am just seeing this is my 8th post. Now I just need to never ever post again........you gotta commit to these things. Okay, maybe I am going nuts. Just maybe.

Ooooooh-kay. I clearly hit a nerve there... sorry. Can we at least agree that: a) Homestuck has become incredibly shitty, and could do with some serious un-fucking, b) we're all angry about point a to one degree or another, and that is PERFECTLY FINE, c) Nightfall is still awesome and the thing we're here to enjoy, and d) by extension we're all here to support Neon and her work and move on? I really don't want to be the one to start a flame war on the Nightfall thread. Lol yeah I think that basically summons up a lot of homestuck fans including me. I feel sorry for the people who have created homestuck fanfics but have lost motivation because of the comic. To me the comic went downhill after act 5, but it didn't become real bad until the recton where the comic didn't even feel like Hussie's writing anymore and just a fanfic. But to be honest Nightfall could really heal some wounds the end of the comic has created. The comic has left things ambiguous enough, which although is terrible for the comic it's good for Nightfall to work with. It is very annoying and sad though, when you've been a fan since you where 15 and adored the comic to death back then and it was one of your favourite things ever, and then 5 years later you now suddenly have done a 180 and dislike it a lot in the past year and only enjoy reading the first half of it, and even then you've lost motivation to read acts 1 - 5 when it was really good. It's sad to think off.

Way to put me out of a job, Neon! But seriously though, it's great to see Nightfall updating again! And great to see Rose again, too.

O.O <<mfw I wanted to do homework but Nightfall updates YESSS, Update Fever! I like how this is going! Especially since the Cyronilians she happened to meet seem kinda nice.
Minerva and "Elapso"? Seems like the latter is some kind of reptilian or doggie.
OOH boy, I can already see Jade replacing "Marie" with Elapso, what about you guys?

The upd8 is good, and I like the information about what Nero did to get power. However, I am still not comfortable with this retcon of past events in Nightfall. I guess I have changed from the hyper JohnVris shipper I was in 2014 to a more balanced shipper. EDIT: Okay, I finally saw the retcon and it looks good. Ignore my previous comment.

2 questions just came up in my mind. First, how do the Shinobi draw with their huge claws? How did they create all these books? Or the puppet from the earlier rose section, for that matter? I know, less of a real question here.
Second however, I'd be interested to know how much of the beginning will get revised. If Neon happens to read this, is it really just the very beginning you're redoing? Or even some hundred pages? That would be a huge deal!

Hello, everybody.
1: What Retcon in Nightfall exactly?
2: About Motivation of writing and drawing a Fancomic: Neon Has created her own little universe. She can choose at anytime to make it a alternate timeline, one in which the Retcon works as a Retcon and if that even means that all who were killed their in reality switched in the last second with a really realistic puppet a'la Chrono Trigger. One where Nepeta has a bunch of kitten-Trolls trained to kill evil clowns. This means world free of Pennywise, Sweet Tooth and the Joker... Well, he would be killed again and again to keep him from doing bad stuff. What I want to say: This doesn't have to follow the Canon. I mean the Canon has so many problems it could rival "End of Evangelion" with it's nonsensical-insanity.
3: I will not touch that Hiveswap Game until I get some reviews.
4: Okay, that update is good and makes sense. I like the "anime-as-fuck ninja aliens" line. Also I doubt her pursuers are dangerous.

Neon and I worked together to revise a good portion of the beginning of Nightfall. I was gonna wait to talk about it until after Neon posted it in the thread, but it looks like SOMONE was snooping a little too much so the cat's out of the bag. Neon and I were discussing a lot of problems with the beginning of Nightfall. Problems were to be expected, she started the comic when she was FIFTEEN! We basically devised a list of issues, gathered from each other and feedback from the HS Discord, and worked on a few issues. The retcon will only reach to the flash S Replay. That's roughly a little after the first fight with Hades and the investigation with the spies immediately following. I'll let Neon say more herself, it's her story

I like Nightfall, even if the beginning is retconned. However, remember what happened when George Lucas started retconning the original trilogy. Han shoot first by the way.

This may sound weird, but this seems a little logical to me. The new beginning of nightfall seems to me to be doing very well, although this makes me ask a question. Are Neon or Havoc part of Act8official? Does this new beginning have anything to do with Act 8?

If you want to talk to someone on the Act 8 team, Austinado hangs out in the /r/Homestuck Discord. Off Topic: THAT DAVE HAIR THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. GURL DON'T GET ME STARTED

Neon would be happy of current Homestuck events in the snapchat page. I am not going to lie, I started shipping JohnRoxy after some time of getting used to the retcon, but... Shipping is hard and nobody understands. I shouldn't have talked about how I hated JohnRoxy in 2014 in the old Nightfall forum, but it was funny to see those Warhammer 40,000 images about exterminatus on the JohnRoxy fandom.

I'll let Neon speak for herself about how she feels about the current snaps, I've done enough speaking for her as is. Look forward to another Nightfall update soonish* *Soonish meaning that I'm almost done coloring the panels needed for the update, but that doesn't mean the update will be posted as soon as I finish.

I looked at the beginning and I see no difference. What is it? It's a separate thing entirely. It hasn't been published yet because it's not ready. If you snoop around on MSPAF you can find it tho.

thanks, i'm glad you're enjoying jojostuck! anyway here's a VERY ROUGH sketch of liz and her "stand", 2BA Master. i think neon saw it before but i might as well show it here. while i'm going on about stands (read: superpowers that are ghosts, from jojo), 2BA Master is like Gold Experience except instead of turning objects into animals, it turns objects into pokemon because fuck why not. if it weirds you out just focus on the anime liz
